Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment with a total area of 700 sqft. The list price is £262,500. The average price for properties in the area is £267,119, with an average price per sqft of £301. Nearby terraced houses on Bradstone Avenue range in price from £105,000 to £197,000. This suggests that the apartment’s price is at the higher end of the market for the immediate vicinity, but comparable to other apartments in the Somme House development. The apartment appears to be in excellent condition, with modern fixtures and fittings throughout. The images show a recently built, modern development with well-maintained communal gardens. The location is positive, with good proximity to Folkestone Central train station (0.98 KM) and several well-regarded schools within a reasonable distance, including The Beacon Folkestone (Outstanding Ofsted rating). The presence of communal gardens is a positive aspect. However, the plot size of 0.00 sqft indicates a lack of private outdoor space. Considering the property’s modern condition, desirable location near transportation and schools, and the relatively competitive pricing compared to similar apartments in the area, the overall value appears reasonable. The lack of private outdoor space is a potential drawback, but this is offset by the communal gardens.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
